Abstract
High quality LOROP (Long Range Oblique Photography) cameras are appearing increasingly in the international marketplace. This paper generalizes on some of their capabilities, advantages and applications. Stress is laid on the problems of training photo interpreters to fully utilize the potential of this type of reconnaissance imagery. Results of student exercises in descriptive image analysis and mensuration are presented and discussed. Final-ly, current work on computer programing of oblioue and panoramic mensuration tasks is summarized.
